2.4.1 PASS REGULATION

For the purposes of determining the overall result, weightage of 100% is applied for six
months and one year duration courses and 50% weightage is applied to each examination for
two years courses. The minimum pass percent for Trade Practical and Formative assessment is
60% & for all other subjects is 33%. There will be no Grace marks.
2.4.2 ASSESSMENT GUIDELINE
Appropriate arrangements should be made to ensure that there will be no artificial

barriers to assessment. The nature of special needs should be taken into account while
undertaking assessment. Due consideration should be given while assessing for teamwork,
avoidance/reduction of scrap/wastage and disposal of scrap/wastage as per procedure,
behavioral attitude, sensitivity to environment and regularity in training. The sensitivity towards
OSHE and self-learning attitude are to be considered while assessing competency.
Assessment will be evidence based, comprising the following:
• Job carried out in labs/workshop
• Record book/ daily diary
• Answer sheet of assessment
• Viva-voce
• Progress chart
• Attendance and punctuality
• Assignment
• Project work
Evidences and records of internal (Formative) assessments are to be preserved until

forthcoming examination for audit and verification by examination body. The following marking
pattern to be adopted while assessing:
